A Washington Order Dismissing Dependency is a court order issued by a Washington state court that dismisses the dependency of a child who has been removed from their parental home and placed in foster care. This order is issued when the court determines that the child is no longer dependent and should be returned to their parents or guardians. There are two different types of Washington Order Dismissing Dependency: a Permanent Order Dismissing Dependency and a Temporary Order Dismissing Dependency. A Permanent Order Dismissing Dependency is issued when the court finds that the child is no longer dependent and can permanently return to their parents or guardians. A Temporary Order Dismissing Dependency is issued when the court finds that the child is no longer dependent and can temporarily return to their parents or guardians, but must be closely monitored by social services and the court.
